Job Description
The Digital Evolution @ McDonalds
Over the past couple of years, McDonald’s has made considerable investments in its digital transformation, all sought at putting the customer front and center in everything we do. In 2017, McDonald’s started modernizing its stores in an effort to build a world-class dining experience in our restaurants (EOTF-Experience of the Future). This included the addition of new technologies like self-ordering kiosks and digital menu boards as well as an updated and contemporary design inside the restaurants and service improvements like table service. These advancements were all designed to improve our ability to deliver on our customer’s expectations, and surprise/delight them when they choose to visit.
In addition, McDonald’s launched its first mobile app a few years ago to improve digital access and convenience. Among other capabilities, it contains innovative geo-fencing capabilities that determine when a customer is approaching the restaurant, helping us ensure that the food preparation/timing will be making our product as fresh as possible. This app also allows for convenient mobile payments and helps facilitate customers getting their order quickly without standing in line or waiting in the drive-through.
With all of the digital transformation taking place across the McDonald’s network, we now have access to a growing and rich CUSTOMER DATA set fed by tens of millions of transactions and digital interactions every day. Demonstrating this data is essential to the development of a unified marketing strategy and customer experience, both in-store and out-of-store. With an informed approach, we can better deliver on the convenience and value that our customers expect from us.
Recently, McDonald’s formed a new dedicated division within the US Marketing organization - Customer Data Strategy, Technology and Marketing Science - to ensure we are laser-focused on improving the value of these data assets and our marketing ecosystem across the organization. The goal of the Supervisor, Customer Data Activation, specifically, is to support the Manager, Customer Data Activation and the wider Customer Data Science team by bridging customer data to activation endpoints to drive profitable digital guest counts. Our guiding principle is to drive towards a rich, personalized experience for our customers across all of our digital channels (Mobile App, Web, Kiosk, Digital Menu Boards, CRM) and to improve the return and efficiency of our marketing investments wherever and whenever possible.
